Thirds -Under 15 Cv r» fS gi, -A FRONT ROW: Holland, Cole, Fife I, Smith II, Hueton I, Waddell, Mahfood II, Gilchrist, Green II. BACK ROW: Wood II, Ashley, Anderson, Durst, Sutherland, Wright, Burke II, Mr. Large. Enthusiasm, talent, and loyalty are the ingredients needed for a successful cricket season. With all three present this year, our success was assured. Results - five wins, one tie and two losses. We shall always remember the infamous tie with T.C.S. at 132 runs each. An arbitrary decision of a tie was reached by the two coaches when it was discovered that the two score books did not agree. It was a very tense match indeed with the end coming on a catch by Appleby for the 10th T.C.S. wicket on the last ball of the last over as time ran out. Both teams left the field thinking that we had won by one run. Such was a lesson in the im- portance of accurate scoring. The team ' s strength was not so much in its batting as in its bowling. Waddell, Hueton, Wright and Sutherland all bowled at one time or another but were in need of a good spin- bowler to provide a contrast to their similar paces. Hueton and Waddell took the majority of the wickets, but towards the end of the season Glenn Wright showed great improvement and bowled for the entire final match, taking four Ridley wickets. Our batting was not at all con- sistent and the team ' s total was usually due to individual per- formances. Nevertheless, Wad- dell, Wright and Durst usually managed to contribute to the score while the left-handed Bob Smith provided the opposing bowlers with something to think about. Mike Sutherland, on his day, looked impossible to bowl to, and in the infamous - tied match against T.C.S. he scored a hardhitting 49. John Gilchrist kept wicket very soundly and captained the Rookie team. To our captain John Waddell and Vice-Captain lain Hueton we say thank you for leading us to two victories each over Ridley and T.C.S. and one over the Toronto Cricket Club. In defeat they led a team against Ridley ' s U-16 ' s and U.C.C. who showed the op- position that Appleby knows the game of Cricket. These schools will see more of us in the next four years. F.S.L.

Cricket is a gentleman ' s game played by gentlemen, football is a beastly game played by beasts, while rugby is a beastly game played by gentlemen . Any self-proclaimed rugby player must agree that, at times, the game can accurately be described as beastly (this is actually one of the attractions of rugby-football for those who en- joy an organized rumble now and
